No one should refrain from flying our flag because a few people might think it’s a sign of being a Trump supporter.
I would like to comment on Cress Hudspeth’s recent letter regarding our American flag. First of all, I would like to thank Mr. Hudspeth for his service to our country and to his family for their sacrifice. I mean that sincerely. That said, and no disrespect here to Mr. Hudspeth, I am perplexed at his decision to NOT fly the flag on Veteran’s Day or any other day for that matter. To say that “It has been made clear to me that Trump supporters have appropriated the symbol of this great nation as theirs and theirs alone” is just wrong. I think many people in this country would be devastated and insulted that Mr. Hudspeth or any veteran would think that about them. (Biden & Trump supporters both.) Mr. Hudspeth or anyone else should never refrain from flying our flag because of what a few would think.
